Hydrotherapy
Gentle, water-based physiotherapy to improve strength, mobility, and function
Hydrotherapy uses a heated pool to reduce stress on joints and muscles while allowing safe, effective exercise.
At Thurgood Physiotherapy in Port Macquarie, our physiotherapists guide you through personalised water-based exercises to support recovery, improve mobility, and maintain fitness.
Hydrotherapy can support recovery and improve overall function. It can help you to:
- Relieve joint stress. Gentle exercise in heated water to reduce pain and stiffness.
- Recover after surgery. Low-impact rehabilitation for post-operative recovery.
- Improve your balance. Safe water-based training to build coordination and confidence.
- Manage chronic pain. Specialist support for arthritis and persistent muscle conditions.
- Boost your mobility. Effective exercises to restore movement and daily function.
This therapy works alongside your overall physiotherapy program to support your long-term health and wellbeing.
